LEADING MANUFACTURERS AND MERCHANTS CITY OF BROOKLYN
Edwin J. STANLEY
Musical instruments
No. 227 Fulton Street.-
Of the many dealers in musical instruments of this city few have a higher
reputation than Mr. Edwin J. Stanley, of No. 227 Fulton street, where he
occupies a finely fitted store, which affords a roomy space of 25x60 feet.
Here he carries at all times an especially choice stock of all the best
known and approved brass and stringed instruments, selected from the
celebrated foreign and domestic manufacturers and warranted of the finest
workmanship.
Mr. Stanley makes a specialty of the repairing of instruments himself and
has deserved celebrity for his skill in the intricate, careful treatment
of violins. The business was founded by Messrs. MAYLAND & Stanley at No. 24
Myrtle avenue in 1876.
Mr. Stanley, the present proprietor, succeeded in 1884, when he removed to
No. 227 Fulton street.
Mr. Stanley is a native of Buffalo, N. Y., where he was born in 1852. He
has resided in this city fully twenty-five years, and his practical knowledge
of all the many details of his business, added to his constant efforts to
accord satisfaction to all customers, has deserved and earned him a hearty
support.
